The fix-it is problematic if it is a templated type and should probably be omitted in that case:
#include <cstdint>
#include <sstream>
template<typename T>
void func(const T& data)
{
std::ostringstream ostr;
ostr << data;
}
void f()
{
func((char)0);
func((int8_t)0);
func("");
}
<source>:8:10: warning: 'signed char' passed to 'operator<<' outputs as character instead of integer. cast to 'unsigned int' to print numeric value or cast to 'char' to print as character [bugprone-unintended-char-ostream-output]
8 | ostr << data;
